Is Sirius XM radio worth the subscription?

[VirginiaSlim75]

I think so...I just paid $35 flat for 6 months

I like it cuz it puts me on to new music and different genres...I been listening to the jazz station lately and finding some real good stuff

On the stations that play new hip hop they seem to have the same ten songs in rotation, you might catch a gem on the stations that play older hip hop

Doesn’t bother me, I listen to everything, r&b, hip-hop, Rock, pop, talk, etc
The best hip hop is played during the mix shows that are on every night on Shade & HH Nation, Kid Kapri has a show on the weekends
The Beatles channel is one of my saved stations
I probably listen to live talk the most and you have everything to pick from

Yeah basically what I figured, how you get your sports fix though

I listen to podcasts from the day. I’m at work during the day. I only listen to music in the car and podcasts when I get home.

You can also stream ESPN RADIO from the ESPN app for Free

And ESPN radio stream from the ESPN app you can stream any ESPN radio station in the country live

I have had it for years and never bothered to cancel it...and probably wont right now. my wife is a manager and uses it to provide music to her store. I mainly listen to sports radio and maybe some NPR or comedy. some jazz and old soul.

the LAST thing I listen to on there is hip hop unless its ole school (LL Cool J's Rock the Bells channel) so if thats what you are getting it for then hell no. I stream all my music. They play no hip hop I want to hear and the few channels they have play the same shyt. I may just do Tidal along with my Amazon and call it a day.

I like the DJ premier show, Sway obviously, and the Shade45 channel. Hip Hop XL is alright for some mumble rap if you're into that. Some of the hosts can get annoying as fukk though and I just want them to shut the fukk up and play music. That one guy who runs the alcohol show or whatever. They have good house music shows too, like Nicole Moudaber's In the Mood.

Mine just expired so I'm wondering if I should re-up. They also have a streaming service that you can play off your phone etc, and you could play it in your car with Bluetooth.

I have a subscription to spotify btw

That's what's wild. I got it initially to hear different music and while the playlist can differ from regular radio, you soon realize it's just a different 10 songs they are playing all day.

On the 90s hip hop station they play Ghetto Superstar by Mya and Pras and Baby I Got Your Money by ODB all fukking day long.
